CLAKK: PROTEST. ‘He Claims That His Water Bill is Wrongly Made Ow Mr. S. C. Clarke. a resglent of Northeast Washington. appeared at the Commissioners’ office on T and complained that his bili for water rent was improperly made out, and he refused to pay it until it was charged ‘against him in the form he wished. The bill ‘Was made out against the property 501 C street Rortheast. whereas he contended that it should Bave been made out against 01 Stanton place. This reopens the old contention between the District authorities and Mr. Clarke as to the designation of the street in front of the latter's house. The square in front of his premises was named Stanton Square by the corporation of Washington, but the District authorities da, | ple ou! 825,947 square yards. ‘The service on the im- roved alleys has not been increased, but a jarger area has been cleaned by reason of the ceased's head a shout of indignation went up from the citizens.

Neumeyer’s shrick os | 1,146,725 square yards. he found himself coasting down the bill caused the guard to turn out on the doubie quick. By 9 o'clock in the morning the troop- ers were aguin on the road, the route leading through a fine stretch of country. Stone walls abounded and fine stock seemed plentiful. Eyery little while on the road one or another of the men in the command, who passed through the country during the war, pointed out the location of some engagement or skir- mish. ‘The ground was especially familiar to Fred Springman, whohad scoured the neigh- borhood as one of Kosser's scouts. Just before the troopers reached Hamilton, six miles from Round Hill, the first platoon was sent forward, dismounted and deployed in the woods aa skirmishers. The rest of the com- mand then advanced, wore fired on, and, de- ploying, advanced on the line. ‘The sharp crack of the carbimes drew crowds of people to the spot and the engagement was witnessed with interest. Acharge followed and the second platoon raced up the road, the sabers flashing in the sunhght and the spectators flying in all directions. Even the sight, however, of some twenty gitls climbing a fenee im hot haste had no effect on the troopers, and straight altead they charged until Tue Star's correspondent and a large can of milk had been captured. A halt was made outside of Hamilton and Innch eaten; then through the pretty little town of Hamilton, where many of the houses were decorated with flags and pretiy girls. A salute was fired by the town, and the troop passed on, sorry not to be able to spend more time in the hospitable place. A DELEGATION FROM LEESRUKG. ¢ work on the unimproved streets and alleys has increased owing to the increased building throughout the city and the conse- quent demand for the opening up of new streets and alleys. ‘The growth of this class of work is also brought about by thi opening up or extension of suburban sireeis. Aw I already stated, it isalmostimpossible to give the amount of this work in detail, for. the reasons stated. I cannot, therefore, show the actual in- erease of work performed during present fis- cal year over that of 1890. THE INADEQUATE APPROPRIATION. “While the service has been increased in many localities and larger areas are now being swept than ever before, such has been the growth of the city, the increase of travel and the opening up of new streets and alleys that this department has not been able to keep pace with the improvements or meet the demands of citizens, as the sum of +100,000—the amount appropriated js, inadequate "to perform the work require ind demanded. There are in the cities of Washington and Georgetown, in- eluding suburban streets, about 127 miles of streets and avenues, with an area of over 3,100,000 square yards, over forty miles of un- paved (but graded and otherwise improved) streets, with an area of about 2,200,000 square yards, and in addition ‘thereto the of improved and unimproved alle area of 300,000 square yards,making a combined ares of about 6,100,000 square yards to be kept clean during the year.

An evening party was given yesterday by Mr. and Mrs. George H. Bostwick at their pretty home on Washington street. Many guests were entertained. Mr. Bostwick, with Mrs. William Harlow Chase of Washington, led the way to the supper room at 10 o'clock. A sumptuous repast of fruits, salads and ices was en of. ‘The visitors were Miss May Chase, 1r. Grant Chase, Mr. Charles Boalt, Mr. and Mrs. C. Danell, Mrs. William Harlow Chase, Mr. and Mrs. H. J.

There was a distinguished wedding ceremony performed by Father-Thomas B. Hughes last Tuesday. Miss Omil Edelen of Fort Foote, Prince George's county, Md, and Mr. John 'f. Fisher of Oxon Hill,’ in the same county. wore the contracting parties. Bluffwood, the ancestral estate of the bride, was as gay xs the uiot tastes of the bride's family would allow. isd Edelen for the last two or three sensom has reigned as one of Prince George's belle and Mr. Fisher, at one time sheriff of the county, is one of the most widely Known poli- ticians in lower Maryland. ‘The ‘bride's family is one of the oldest in the state. ‘There were no bridesmaids. Mr, Ernext I. Bowling acted as best man. The bride wore a rich traveling costume of gray cloth, with hat and gloves to match, and curried a cluster of roaes.- After the ceremony a wedding luncheon was served, after which the couple left for an extended pil- grimage among the pleasure resorts of the north. Among the invited company were Mrs. Galloway, sister of the bride. from Baltimore; Mr. Galloway, Miss Essie Edclen, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Geary of Washington, ‘Dr. Peter H. Heiskell of Oxon Hill, Mr.’ and Mrs. Gus Brooke, Miss Mary Brook, Mr. Ernest Brooke. Mrs. Joseph Mattingly, Miss Mattingly, Miss Harlow of Alexandria and a number of others. A PLEASANT BVENING. ‘The handsome residence of Mr. Watson Karr at the corner of Maple and Nichols avenues was festive last night with guests from Washington. Flowers formed a conspicuous feature in the embellishment of the parlors, hall and tea room. ‘The table decorations were worthy of the company and did credit to the hostess. Among those present were Mrs. W. T. Odell, Miss Albertine Odell, Mrs. H. Olive Nash, Mr. W. Keley Shoef, Mrs. Karr, Mr. Fulton Karr and About i o'clock a mounted delegation from Leesburg was encountered. The delegation consisted of some twenty mounted citizens, with Col. E. V. White, a noted fighter during the war, and W. E. Garrett at their head, and & carriage containing the mayor of the towr, H. w George R. Head, W. B. ngtonian and B. ¥.’Sheats The committee escorted the troopers through the town and down to the court house, where a speech of welcome was made by Col. Head and replied to by Capt. | Barbour and Capt. Roe. The troop afterward continued out to the fair grounds, where the camp is situated. A lunch, which effect- ively knocked out all military discipline for the time, was tendered the troop and a number of speeches were made by local men and troopers. ‘The camp is pitched on the upper portion of the grounds, with y of fucilities in the way of stalls, &c. he camp has been named Camp Ordway, in two cities have been kept in good order; #0 much so that Washington is regarded gen- erally as the cleanest city. in _ the country; while said results have been obtained with but small outlay, when com- pared with the cost of like service in other Cities, ard is most gratifying There is still room for greater improvements, but to attain this much desired end lurger means must be placed at the dixposal of the honorable Com- inissioners. I therefore respectfully urge upon you the necessity of securing, if possi- bie, an appropriation that will be equal to. the actual wants and necessities of this branch of the public service, in order that the streets of the capital city may be by their cleanliness one of the chief features of this most attractive city and a source of pride, not only to its own citizens, but to those of the country at large.” ESTIMATES FOR NEXT YEAR. * Estimate for 1892-93: For sprinkling, sweeping and cleaning honov of Gen.

In this regard a story is told about Private Mellach, who rode over the route some time ago. Une of Mellach’s duties was to make him- self agreeable to the people along the proposed ‘ibis ‘section was worked from July 3 to %, when owing to the Nearing up of the car tracks the work was transferred to section between Ist and 9th streets and carried on betw, these points until the zist, when it was stop by reason of the street being more or less obstructed from Ist to 15th street. The results were most apparent. The street was clear at ail times and presented @ most attractive ap- pearance. ‘Ihe business men on the avenue and the public generally were more than pleased and regret its being discontinued. It was hardly necessary to sweep the street at night,as usual, so little debris had accumulated ufter the work had stopped for the day. “The average amount of material gathered from the street per day was fourteen cubic yards, being a total of 105 cubic yards. The cost per day was 36.50. Iam so well satisfied with the experiment that 2s soon as the avenue cleared from 1st to 17th street I respectfully recommend that the men be again placed at work thereon. With the knowledge acquired as to what can be done. 1can safely say that @ force of sixteen men and four carts, with a foreman and assistant foreman, can clean the avenue from Ist to 17th street better and cleaner than if swept daily by machine and that it will at all times present a better ap- nee. The arca between the points named is 101,975 square yards, which to sweep by ma- chine costs duly ¥35.70; to clean by band, 37.50, the difference against the hand labor ut $1.0.

For some time it has been gencraily rumored about town the Washington and Georgetown Railroad Company would extend their new tracks westward to the Aqueduct bridge. How the rumor originated President Hurt is at a ioss to explain, ay the company will not extend their tracks “to the bride because thoi present charter will not allow them. But for somo need of years the company has appreciated this extension’ and at. the last sees) ef Con grees privilege was asked to make it. “Though not a property holder on_ the line of the exten- sion objected, presumubly some silent opposi- tion was offered and they failed to have their charter so amended. “So,” said Mr. Hurt, “we are restricted to our present tracks and after the cable road is finished no change will ACROSS THE AQUEDUCT BRIDGE. Moneyed mer, it is said, willstrive at thenext session of Congress for a charter to allow them to construct a railroad bridge on the piles of the present aqueduct and above the present roadway. ‘This overhead structure, it is claimed, will obstruct in no way the approaches to the aqueduct, but will rest on the bluffs on either side.

SOME MINOR CASES. Prisoners Brought to Trial Before Judge Harper This Morning. Both branches of the Police Court were in session today, Judge Harper holding the session in the little room on the second floor. It was the judge's first experience in the upstairs court room. He convened court promptly at gorclock and Bailiffs Cole and Kendig soon ap- peared in charge of a short procession of pris- oners who had been locked up over night in the police stations. Sam Smith, a was the first victim called and Policeman’ Gordon said that he was also known as Rector Smith. Whisky was the cause of Sam's trouble and the oificer told of his disorderly behavior in and about Shott's alley. “What have you to say about the charge?” the prisoner was asked. “T can't say anythin officer has already said Five dollara, Vagraney and profanity were th against a colored man named Heni Polic&man Byer arrested him and found a knife on him that looked like » slat cutter. Henry was unable to account for his suspicious and disorderly actions and the judge gave him ninety-seven days on the farm. “1 cussed er oath,” was Louis Banks’ plea to harge of profanity, and Judge Harper said, ve dollars or fifteen days.” ¢, colored, and Hamilton Phil- lips, white, were charged with indecent ex sure. Thy former was arrested in Stanton Square and the latter in the Smithsonian grounds. There were mitigating circumstances in the latter case and histine was $5. Payne wag fined $10 or thirty dass. _Jim Temple, a young negro who spends more time behind the prisow bare than he does out side, was recently released from prisun and be has been celebrating his freedom in drowning his past sorrows imgrum. Night before last Jim was #0 intoxicated that he could not navigate, and, after being locked up over night, he was still too drunk to be tr Jim to make the judge believe that the officer errested him because he would not do sone work fo? him in Connection with the arrest of enother person. The judge checked him and gave him ninety days on the farm. ‘liam Brown, Harry Carroll and Johanna Quill onch plead guilty to a charge of being dis- orderly. The judge said $5 and the trio marched back to the cell. William Hall plead not guilty toa charge of disturbing the quiet of Jackson place and Penn- sylvania avente, but the testimony of Police- man Schneider was agairst him and the usual fine was impored, $5 or fifteen days. Joseph Dunn's’ red hair was remembered by the judge and there was no disguising it. Po- liceinan Henry, who is well acquainted with Dunn, gave evidence against him, as did Ofticer Bauer. Their statements were that Dunn spends most of his time about the fieh wharf, where he works until he gets enough money for whisky, and then he remains drunk until his money is gone. Jo, who has been before the court many times before, was sent down for thirty days. —a Excursions. The Clerks’ Mutual Relief Association, com- posed of the employes of Messrs. Lansburgh & Bro., together with a large number of their friends,went down to Marshall Hall on the Mac- alester last evening, the occasion being their eighth annual excursion.

Lans- burgh sent a pleasant letter, which was read at Marshall Hall. in whicl he’ regretted his ab- sence and wished his friends a most delightful time.
